Abstract
Receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) signaling drives cancer and is a validated therapeutic target. Modulators of RTK signaling can reveal mechanisms of oncogenesis and offer new therapeutic targets. Golgi phosphoprotein 3 (GOLPH3) is a Golgi-localized oncoprotein, known to affect signaling downstream of mTOR. Several mechanistic hypotheses have been suggested. Here, systematic examination of RTK signaling indicates that GOLPH3 acts at the RTK itself, affecting all downstream signaling. We find that GOLPH3 modulates delivery of RTKs to the plasma membrane. This role is shared with its binding partner Myosin 18A (MYO18A) and depends on the interaction of GOLPH3 with MYO18A. The GOLPH3-MYO18A complex at the Golgi is required and rate-limiting for RTK signaling across cell-types and receptors. Our findings provide a cohesive understanding of the relationship between GOLPH3’s function at the Golgi and its role as a cancer driver, highlighting its potential as a therapeutic target in cancer.

Description of the data and file structure
This dataset contains the data required to replicate quantification and analyses in Starost et al.:
Receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) signaling drives cancer and is a validated therapeutic target. Modulators of RTK signaling can reveal mechanisms of oncogenesis and offer new therapeutic targets. Golgi phosphoprotein 3 (GOLPH3) is a Golgi-localized oncoprotein that promotes signaling downstream of mTOR. Here, examination of RTK signaling indicated that GOLPH3 acted at the level of the RTK and increased all downstream signaling. We found that GOLPH3 enhanced the delivery of RTKs to the plasma membrane. This role was shared with its binding partner Myosin 18A (MYO18A) and depended on the interaction of GOLPH3 with MYO18A. The GOLPH3-MYO18A complex at the Golgi apparatus was required and rate-limiting for RTK signaling across the cell types and receptors assessed. Our findings provide insight into the relationship between the function of GOLPH3 at the Golgi and its role as a cancer driver, highlighting its potential as a therapeutic target in cancer.
All data are separated by Figure as outlined in the manuscript. Each Figure is subdivided into folders/directories representing each figure panel. Each contains raw data files and quantification as indicated in the manuscript (and this README), and any extra information needed to re-analyze the data.
Files and variables
Each Figure Folder (e.g., Figure 1) contains sub-folders for each individual panel in the manuscript (A, B, C, etc.). Within each panel folder are sub-folders containing experimental or biological replicates that contain one or more of the following:
- Western blot raw 16-bit TIFFs which can be analyzed by the free FIJI/ImageJ software. These are accompanied by an Excel spreadsheet containing densitometry values and statistical analyses obtained for each treatment in each image. The images include labeling (e.g., date and/or experiment number and antibody used for blotting) corresponding to labeling within the associated Excel spreadsheet. The Excel spreadsheet provides annotation indicating the order of lanes for each set of blots, measured integrated intensity, background intensity values, and calculation of relative intensities with statistical analyses.
- TIFF format immunofluorescence images that can be analyzed by the free FIJI/ImageJ software along with an Excel spreadsheet with measured values (as indicated by labeling within the Excel spreadsheet) and statistical analyses obtained for each treatment.
- Additional Excel spreadsheets with raw output values generated from additional experiments, as described in the spreadsheets.
- All Excel spreadsheets contain labeling in rows, columns, and tabs to enable interpretation of the data and the analyses that are provided. This README (and the published manuscript) provide additional helpful context.
